Harvard Study


Thanks to Big Al, my eyes have seen a previously unknown to me, "TIME Best Invention of 2007."

This marks the second time I didn't get into Harvard University. Harvard and Vibram FiveFingers have teamed up for scientific research of barefoot and/or minimally shod running. This most recent rejection comes not at the culpability of my brain, but geographical location and physical issues. I do not live in the New England Area and have had a major lower limb injury in the last 12 months.


It is unbelievable to me I didn't know these foot gloves existed. It is also unbelievable to me that I need these as bad as I think I do. Paying to walk around barefoot? The sheer idea of this is probably the real reason this Indian is crying. Or, maybe it is because he saw bottled water for sale. Regardless, I should get a pair of these.

And, all that barefoot walking around will probably make me pretty thirsty for some liquid from a rare artesian aquifer.

Unfortunately Lesley can only afford two toes on the Files Christmas present budget. Better luck next time.

That is why it is lucky for me, I sent Lesley the link below, because I know the Christmas present budget restraints align fatefully with Lesley's love for late night "As Seen On TV" products.
